Searching for an in-depth deck building guide

I'm more of a collector and thus never got into deck building in Hearthstone although I'm playing HS since the very beginning. Since the meta is getting more and more boring for me, I want to take a look at deck building. I feel, it is a good point in time, since next year a lot of sets will rotate and the card pool will be rather small.

However I can't find any real detailed guide about how to approach deck building at all. The best one I found is the Beginners Guide over at Icy-Veins, which is quite superficial.

Can you recommend any good guides (YT or Twitch Videos would be okay too), that go beyond the basic tips?

  • One place to start would be this collection on Reddit Competitive HS; in particular the "Building or Choosing a Deck" sub-section.  You can also search that subreddit for deckbuilding guides and a few more should pop up.

    To see applications in real time, you could try searching "Deck Doctor" on YouTube.  Firebat used to upload the ones he did on stream and I learned a lot from them.  It looks like one of the guys that posts decks here (FunkiMonki) still does them so that might be worth checking out.

    Personally, I really enjoy the trial and error process so I typically start with a super greedy core and then slowly remove the weakest cards with on-curve answers to how I've been losing and/or more draw/tutors to get to my win condition(s).

    I hope you have fun turning your deck building dreams into memes!

    • Thank you very much :D I'm right now taking a deep dive into the Reddit Collection!
